"This is a really simple—silly, silly simple—Korean-style noodle dish," says Rach. She made it to use up some zucchini from her garden and leftover cabbage a friend gave her. The sauce is a little sweet, spicy and tangy. Mix it in a small bowl, then toss with the boiled noodles and sauteed meat and veggies and your "make your own takeout" dinner is done!
